Monopoles, Duality, and Deconfined Quantum Tricriticality

Explore a 45-minute conference talk on "Monopoles, Duality, and Deconfined Quantum Tricriticality" presented by Shai Chester from Imperial College. Delivered as part of the "Theories, Experiments and Numerics on Gapless Quantum Many-body Systems" conference at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics (KITP), this presentation delves into cutting-edge research on strongly correlated gapless quantum many-body systems. Gain insights into topics such as deconfined quantum critical points, quantum spin liquids, non-Fermi liquids, generalized symmetries, and the applications of duality in quantum critical points. Understand the latest experimental progress and theoretical understanding of strongly correlated gapless states, including SYK physics and its real-world applications. Benefit from the interdisciplinary approach of this conference, which brings together experts from various physics disciplines to foster productive discussions on open questions in the field.
